Scientists produce methane-based rocket fuel using resources found on Mars

(Natural News) Scientists at the University of California, Irvine (UC Irvine) have figured out how to produce rocket fuel using only portable materials and resources that can be sourced from Mars. The scientists developed a one-step process that requires only zinc, a mineral found on the red planet, and a small easy-to-carry device to catalyze carbon dioxide and produce methane-based fuel....
